Retrospective Analysis of Cataract Formation and Nutritional Etiology in a Managed Collection of Parakeet Auklets (Aethia psittacula)
JOURNAL OF AVIAN MEDICINE AND SURGERY, 35(4), 390–401.
MeSH headings : Animals; Birds; Cataract / etiology; Cataract / veterinary; Charadriiformes; Retrospective Studies
TL;DR:
The parakeet auklet is a piscivorous seabird with a natural diet of various invertebrate and teleost species, which is challenging to replicate in a managed collection, which was hypothesized to be related to inappropriate vitamin A and E levels.
